I'm always amazed how people can be so receptive to this argument. I personally find it incredibly insulting that Nanny Apple tells me I don't know what's good for me; that they know what's good for me and it also happens to be incredibly lucrative for them and absolutely devastating for all would-be competition. Don't let them treat you like a child. Speaking of children, I think you A) massively overestimate the security that Apple's current review process provides (it's really just an automated virus scanner, and not a very good one at that; nobody actually reviews the apps by hand) and B) assume for some reason that the EU would cavalierly conflate the rights of children with the rights of adults. There are tons of regulations that treat the two groups quite differently, and allowing parents to control the freedoms of their own children would not be incompatible with this regulation.
